whoa. Googling ClaimID led me to Naymz. They present a benefit I hadn't considered. You can claim your online identity while distancing yourself from others who share your name. When your name is the same as that of a pron star, it could be worth the effort.

zipper wrote: I put off linking Flickr and Yahoo, too. It seemed intrusive, which is a good descriptor of how I feel about OpenID as well. I didn't know that you would automatically log in to a separate Yahoo messenger ID if the other Yahoo ID was open for other purposes. That seems like a Yahoo flaw. It's been five years since I've logged into Yahoo messenger, and I'm no expert.
As Allan reminded me, the Flickr folk seemed to understand their users' reticence to use Yahoo to sign into Flickr. So they said, just make up a name, and they gave the example of firstname_flickr@yahoo. I've never opened Yahoo messenger with my Flickr ID, but I suppose I could.

When I had to associate my Flickr account with a Yahoo ID (and I waited until the laaaaast minute), I decided I didn't want to use my messenger ID, which was my old married name. *cough* It still is, actually. So I created a new Yahoo ID based on my Flickr username, and they've been separate entities ever since.

But yeah...one ID and password? There's a reason I don't do the master password thing with Firefox.

Honestly, I'm more interested in how beneficial Toodledo has proven to be for anyone who's used it. It almost seems counterproductive to me - key in your to do items along with how much time each will take, check them off as they're accomplished, look for something that you've estimated will take the same amount of time you have left in the workday. My workday is generally spent working on the particular project that's on fire at the moment.
edit: When I was registering for Toodledo, there was a prompt to use your OpenID, so I looked it up and thought I'd ask about it as well.

If I hadn't already had all those other accounts, I might've signed up. But I think I was also leery of the idea of OpenID for some reason.
Wait...Allan says that Typepad's TypeKey works with OpenID. Hmm. I should try to see if he's right some time.

Seriously? You think someone would ask online for others' opinions about their experience with a product without going to the address bar, typing in the name of said product, hitting enter, and learning about it? Uh. No. Is that how they do it in French Canadia?

hobbitt has an OpenID. Says he doesn't use it much - since he doesn't surf to all that many sites that require userids.
